More Subway Stations

After visiting Danilovsky and Donskoy Monasteries, I went to Izmailova market, which is THE place to buy souvenirs. There were some beautiful subway stations on the way, so I stopped at a couple of them to take pictures.

This is Kurskaya, certainly celebrating the Battle of Kursk:


I think these were taken at was Baumanskaya or Semyonovskaya:


These are from Partizanskaya, in honour of the Partizans:



I didn't buy any souvenirs at the market, because I want to go there with Livia. There were tons of soviet paraphernalia (from medals and posters to jetfighter helmets!), pirate DVDs (I bought Miami Vice, American Dreamz and The Black Dahlia) and all kinds of Babushka dolls (from traditional ones to unorthodox: Jewish families, The Simpsons, Kandinsky and Nascar!)
